It depends on what you want! You cannot expect to have the same DOF control with a 25mm lens on M4/3 as a 50mm lens on FF or other crop body format. You sacrifice that for the same field of view as FF. I shoot a 50mm adapted lens if I want the same DOF control.

I'm well aware of that, but as I've just demonstrated, you can use the 25mm F1.4 for isolating a subject and the link will lead you to plenty of other examples. It is not true to say that you would not use this lens for this - I've just disproved that.
